Department of State: Student Experience Intern Program

Department of State is Now Accepting Applications for their Student Experience Intern Program
As a Student Experience intern, you may have the opportunity to:

*   Participate in meetings with senior level U.S. government or foreign government officials;
*   Draft, edit, or contribute to cables, reports, communications, talking points, or other materials used by policy makers in furthering U.S. foreign policy objectives;
*   Help organize and support events, including international and/or multi-lateral meetings and conferences on critical global issues;
*   Contribute to the management and administration of the Department of State and America’s foreign policy; and
*   Engage directly with U.S. or foreign audiences to promote U.S. foreign policy and improve understanding of U.S. culture and society.

So consider spending your summer 2013 with the U.S. Department of State, witnessing and participating in the formulation and implementation of U.S. foreign policy, working closely with the U.S. diplomats and civil servants who carry out America’s foreign policy initiatives. You’ll not only have an experience of a lifetime, you may even earn educational credit.*

* Applicants who are selected for a U.S. Department of State Student Experience can contact the selecting bureau, or the central Student Programs office, if they require further details about the program to support their request for academic credit.
